Hotel El Mirador

Terrible hotel, awful breakfast with soggy bacon and eggs soaked in grease! Tinned fruit and Coco pops and cornflakes the only cereal choices! Dinner menu is just as bad and food was bland. Staff are clearly not trained in customer service and we were very aware from the outset we weren't their priority and we felt more of a hindrance. They decor is clinical and lighting is awful, so bright. No mood or atmosphere. We stayed 2 nights and wanted to check out after one! We decided not to as we would lose money having already paid! Otherwise we'd have moved on as quickly as possible. Awful spot with no decent restaurants nearby and both to really see apart from the view which is not worth it considering everything.

Excellent modern hotel, we only stayed for one night on route to Algarinejo and would definitely use it again. We stayed in a suite, which was fantastic, large bathroom, king size bed with an additional seating area with 2nd tv. We checked in late evening and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Buffet breakfast for 10 euros was good value for money, there were two cereals, bacon, potato tortilla, fried and scrambled eggs, fresh tomatoes, selection of meats and fruit, pasties, yoghurts etc. Fresh orange juice and the usual tea coffees. Served 07:30 to 10:30, we were a little late however the staff cooked up more eggs and bacon for us once we asked. Overall excellent hotel, definitely will be staying again.

This hotel is absolutely fabulous. The location is great for visiting Saville, Granada and Cordoba. The rooms are great and a great view of Loja village. Great if you have a car as public transport is not the best here. But its so central that you can use it as a base to see Southern Spain.

very average hotel. breakfast choice very poor. sorry we would not stay again. location is quite remote. staff were quite rude. to far from city centre. poor choice at breakfast shower did not work bar swimming pool was closed

A beautiful modern hotel with comfortable beds, spacious rooms and a fabulous terrace to sit out on in the summer evenings. I can't comment on the food as we were part of a visiting coach party and we didn't experience the a la carte menu.

Apparently this hotel has a Michelin chef, we didn’t see this reflected in the food prepared for our group. It was tasteless and boring. Nobody pairs chips with a grisly beef stew that could have done with another 12 hours slow cooking. Turkey curry, another unusual dish paired with bland rice garnished with currants. The fish was overdone and sinewy and tough. What a waste of produce. No variety in breads either. Choice of desert was yoghurt which the rest of the world eat for breakfast. Fruit which eventually appeared on our second night after we asked for it and an unidentifiable soft pudding which many mistook for an omelette. The buffet tray is set out wrong, it ought to flow from right to left as most people are right handed. There was no solid evidence of someone checking and replenishing empty dishes on the pass. Training is an issue. One good waiter is worth ten bad ones. There was an unbelievable incident in the dining room at breakfast time. I witnessed the whole thing. A lady buttered a roll wrapped it in a tissue and was about to leave the room. One of the waitresses, long hair in a plait spoke to her very loudly in a language that the lady didn’t understand. Totally overacted in quite an aggressive way. The lady was embarrassed and so was I. And by the way Management, there was no notice in the dining area stating that FOOD WAS NOT TO LEAVE THE DINING ROOM. This hotel is in the middle of nowhere and you need transport. There is no shuttle bus to the town. There is no pool. There are no loungers to sit out and relax Reception/ Management take heed of this one. I went down to collect my passport to find that it wasn’t there. It had been handed out to another woman. I would strongly advise that you appoint a responsible person for this job. Match the signature and photo in the passport. Rooms super clean, bed comfortable, if walk in shower, some had baths. The kitchen and dining area let the hotel down.
